This is a solid fight between two potential contenders in the super lightweight division. Malik Hawkins is 18-0 but in his only step up fight really struggled before his opponent injured themselves and couldn’t continue. Subriel Matias was a top prospect before losing focus in his last fight and getting upset by someone he really should have beat.
I’ve never been convinced by Malik Hawkins however I was high on Matias before his loss and as long as he has full concentration I think he should win this fight by knockout.
